Lincoln – As men and women have returned from deployment and transition from active duty to civilian lives, some may be living with the effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Over a dozen organizations are joining efforts to make sure Nebraska employers are familiar with these issues and resources.

“We all want returning service members to succeed in the workplace,” said Kerry Winterer, CEO of the Department of Health and Human Services. “It’s important that employers of veterans of all eras know the signs and symptoms of TBI and PTSD and are familiar with available resources that support both employers and veterans.”
